Too often adulteration is a deliberate form of robbery.
Steps have been taken in recent years to put a stop to this universal system of fraud, more especially in connection with butter.
Were more Acts passed similar to the "Margarine Act" we believe that this country would be richer and happier, and without doubt more healthy. In that large class of puddings known as custard pudding, cabinet pudding, there is no difference whatever in vegetarian cookery.
It would be quite impossible to make any of these puddings without eggs, and when eggs are used we may take for granted that butter is allowed also. We have, throughout, called particular attention to the importance of appearances.
In the case of all puddings made with eggs and baked in a dish, it is a very great improvement to reserve one or two whites of egg, and to beat these to a stiff froth, with a little white powdered sugar. When the pudding is baked, cover it with this snow-white froth, and let it set by placing it in a slack oven for two or three minutes.
